\(\Large \bf \sqrt[6]{48^3}\quad ?\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes thats right.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\bf \Large {{\color{blue}{ 48\implies 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3\implies 2^2\cdot 2^2\cdot 3}} \\ \quad \\ \quad \\ \sqrt[6]{48^3}\implies \sqrt[6]{(2^2\cdot 2^2\cdot 3)^3}\implies \sqrt[6]{2^{2\cdot 3}\cdot 2^{2\cdot 3}\cdot 3^3}}\) what do you think?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Honestly I dont know...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[2\sqrt{6}?\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\Large \bf {{\color{blue}{ 48\implies 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3\implies 2^2\cdot 2^2\cdot 3}} \\ \quad \\ \quad \\ \sqrt[6]{48^3}\implies \sqrt[6]{(2^2\cdot 2^2\cdot 3)^3}\implies \sqrt[6]{2^{2\cdot 3}\cdot 2^{2\cdot 3}\cdot 3^3} \\ \quad \\ \sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 3^3}\implies 2\cdot 2\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{3} }\) anything that matches the radical, or root, comes out, losing their exponents, thus

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok...

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so, just multiply the two fellows that came out and you'd get the value in front of the radical

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, \[4^6 \sqrt{3}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

or what?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

\(\Large \bf \sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 3^3}\implies 2\cdot 2\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{3} \implies 4\sqrt[6]{3}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok what is the next step...? the exponents?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

that's as simplified as you can get it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then is it option C? \[4\sqrt{6}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

because there are no options that say \[4\sqrt[6]{3}\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm those options don't show any \(\Large \sqrt[6]{\qquad }\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nope

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

so I wonder if the original included \(\Large \sqrt[6]{\qquad }\) or was it just \(\Large \sqrt[]{\qquad }\)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm oh and even then I forgot the 3 has a exponent anyway, should be \(\Large \bf \sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 3^3}\implies 2\cdot 2\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{3^3} \implies 4\sqrt[6]{3^3} \)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

original problem was\[\sqrt[6]{48^{3}}\]

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

hmmm I see ok.... so \(\Large { \bf \sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 2^{\color{red}{ 6}}\cdot 3^3}\implies 2\cdot 2\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{3^3} \implies 4\sqrt[6]{3^3} \\ \quad \\ \textit{keep in mind that } \sqrt[{\color{red} m}]{a^{\color{blue} n}}=a^{\frac{{\color{blue} n}}{{\color{red} m}}}\qquad thus \\ \quad \\ 4\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 6}}]{3^{\color{blue}{ 3}}}\implies 4\cdot 3^{\frac{{\color{blue} 3}}{{\color{red} 6}}}\implies 4\cdot 3^{\frac{1}{2}} \\ \quad \\ \implies 4\sqrt[{\color{red}{ 2}}]{3^{\color{blue}{ 1}}}\implies 4\sqrt{3}}\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thank you:)
